We were amazed at this beautiful place .It exceeded our expectations and as it is only new since July this year we could use the rooftop of the 3 Pines hotel across the road for a rooftop experience and view.The staff were so friendly and helpful whether it be advising about amenities and restaurants or ordering our airport taxi.The room was spotless,spacious and design suited everything from plenty of towels changed each day and 2 verandas (one from bedroom and one from sitting room)One had a clothes airer.There was a washing machine, dishwasher,sandwich toaster as well as usual implements and plenty of glasses etc.The bed was so comfy and Aircon great with conveniently located light switches and even a switch to close the curtains .There were robes and slippers and I used the pool which I found refreshing .we did not use the gym but it was so well equipped.They even left a large bottle of water on arrival and a packet of pretzels.We found it so easy to walk to the city centre from the location .Overall fabulous place and decor is stunning and modern

FAQs about hotels in Heraklio Town

The Cradle of Minoan Civilisation

Nowadays known as the capital of the Greek island of Crete, Heraklion was once the centre of the Minoan civilisation and the port of the ancient Knossos. This stunning gem features rich history, outdoor markets and important archaeological sites.

Just 6 km from the lively Heraklion is the world-renown ruins of the Knossos palace, where according to the Greek mythology Daedalus built a labyrinth to hold the Minotaur.

Home to the 16th-century church of Agia Ekaterini, the cathedral of St. Minas, Venetian Loggia and the Archaeological Museum, this destination is much more than just a cosmopolitan city with vibrant nightlife. Do not forget to wander around the old port or visit the Venetian Walls.

Beach lovers can discover some of the most popular places of Crete like the tourist resorts of Malia and Hersonissos, the golden beach of Amoudara and the fishing village of Agia Pelagia.

The international airport of Heraklion, Nikos Kazantzakis, is the largest one in the island and the second busiest in Greece. Situated about 4 km from the city centre, it offers seasonal flights to Vienna, Barcelona, Zurich and St. Petersburg. Booking.com offers a great variety of hotels in Heraklion.

    Heraklion has a lot of car and bike traffic.

    Heraklion has a lot of car and bike traffic. It is like peak hour in Sydney constantly. Parking is horrendous. I would recommend staying out of Heraklion. Drive to Knossos Palace, but go early. The other attraction for us was the Archaeological Museum. Get a uber or taxi to that. The foreshore looks like they gave up on it years ago. After Chania, Heraklion was a disappointment.

    Of the 3 major cities, Heraklion has the most interesting sites and museums - especially the Kotsanas Museum of Ancient Science . Rethymnon was the most relaxing and romantic. Chania was far too touristy, but the Natural History Museum is excellent with exhibits well-titled in English

    If you like to party, this is a great place with lots of bars and restaurants. The city however is quite dirty and the infrastructure seems to be falling apart. The locals we met were all very nice and helped us when we had questions or were lost.

    Heraklio is perfect for those who want to go sightseeing rather than only beach. It is a bustling city with an excellent museum and good transport links. The bus timetables aren't the easiest to understand and if you want to really explore Crete you may wish to consider renting a car.

    The location of the hotel is a perfect starting point for walking around the city centre and exploring Iraklion's main landmarks. We particularly enjoyed the direct view on the quiet, fascinating old square and the breakfast served in a very relaxing atmosphere at the nearby cafe. The room is very modern, spacious, clean and comfortable, with soft beds and excellent bathroom.
